Get to know your anti-gang police unit CFSEU publishes first community report; unveils profile of murder victims, warning signs for parents by Jeff Nagel
BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER
Wings of spring
Hummingbirds – including this rufous – are out in force this spring visiting the five feeders at the Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary on Westham Island in Delta.
B.C.’S ANTI-GANG police unit is taking a step out of the shadows and into the spotlight. The Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit (CFSEU) is the integrated team of 400 officers and civilians from 14 different agencies, including RCMP and municipal police forces, that disrupt and suppress organized crime around the province. Their investigations have cracked big cases, such as the discovery of an audacious cross-border drug-smuggling tunnel in Aldergrove and the unraveling of a massive international money-laundering ring. The CFSEU is now out to capture a bigger public profile with the publication of its first-ever Community Report. The report can be read online at bc-anti-gang.com Sgt. Lindsey Houghton said the aim is to make more people aware of the CFSEU and what it does. The initiative comes as the anti-gang force chalks up a major win – the arrest in February of three men in the murder of notorious gangster Jonathan Bacon, who was shot with four associates in 2011 outside a Kelowna casino.

Black Press PoLiCe have released a sketch of
a man they say sexually attacked a woman as she was leaving her Cloverdale apartment last week. The 20-year-old woman was leaving her basement suite in the 16600block of 63B Avenue at 10:30 a.m. Thursday when she was attacked by a male. She fought him off, and he then fled. The Suspect woman was taken to hospital and treated for her injuries. Police are asking for help locating a man described as a 6’2” Caucasian male in his late 20s to early 30s, with a thin build, long, light brown curly hair – described as greasy and dirty – with a scruffy beard and brown eyes. According to Surrey RCMP, the man had a thin face with a large nose and yellow teeth, including a gold filling on the bottom left. He was wearing light-coloured jeans, a black hoody, a dirty red baseball cap that was worn on the rim and muddy white sneakers. Police note the man had a large scar on his left eyebrow. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604599-0502 or, to remain anonymous, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

Surrey RCMP will host an open house at their main detachment (14355 57 Ave.) on Saturday, May 11 from 12-4 p.m. There will be a number of hands-on activities, vehicles, and informative displays as well as guided tours of the facilities. Scheduled to appear are Emergency
Response Team, Police Dog Services, and the RCMP’s Air One helicopter. The event is free (including free parking and light refreshments). “This is an opportunity for members of the community to meet RCMP officers, staff, and volunteers, and get a firsthand look at some of our tools, equipment and programs that help keep our community safe,” said Chief Supt. Bill Fordy, Officer in Charge of Surrey RCMP. “We hope you join us for this fun, family-oriented event and we look forward to seeing you help us kick off Police Week.” “The Surrey RCMP have been an integral part of our community for over 60 years,” said Mayor Dianne Watts. “This event is about connecting and engaging with the
public about the programs and services underway to help improve public safety in our city. “The City of Surrey will proclaim National Police Week in Surrey at the next Council meeting,” she added. National Police Week, which this year runs from May 12-18, is an annual event dedicated to increasing community awareness and recognition of police services while strengthening ties with the community. Law enforcement personnel across North America are honoured at special events recognizing their dedication and commitment to public safety.

Business leaders call for light rapid transit Group called Light Rail Links forms to push for rail lines along some south-of-Fraser corridors by Kevin Diakiw Business and com-
munity groups are lining up behind Surrey’s mayor in a call for light rapid transit along some of the city’s major corridors. Mayor Dianne Watts has long called for light rapid transit – which she argues would be more affordable than SkyTrain – along King George Boulevard to Newton, Fraser Highway to Langley, and 104 Avenue to Guildford. On Tuesday, the Surrey Board of Trade (SBOT), the Fraser Valley Real Estate Association (FVREA), the Downtown Surrey BIA, and community groups joined the chorus calling for light rail. Scott Olson, past president of the FVREA, said the lobbying will be intense. “We will be talking to everyone - our local communities, Trans-
Link and the B.C. and federal governments – about the immediate need for light rail south of the Fraser to ensure livable, connected, sustainable neighbourhoods are developed,” Olson said. “Light Rail Links believes light rail is the most cost-effective and high-quality form of rapid transit to address the needs of our communities and the rapidly increasing population.” SBOT CEO Anita Huberman agreed. “Experience with light rail systems in other cities such as Portland, Oregon shows that housing developments and businesses will invest and build near the easy-to-access, at-grade light rail stations,” she said. “Light rail has been good for business in other jurisdictions, and it will be good for business here in Surrey.
Light rail is essential for the South Fraser region’s economic development.” Rick Hart, president of the Fleetwood Community Association, said light rail is important in shaping communities south of the Fraser. “We want to make sure that, as Surrey grows, we create communities that are inter-
connected and familyfriendly,” Hart said. Huberman said it’s no mistake this issue is coming up a week before the provincial election. In fact, it was announced the same day as an all-candidates’ meeting hosted by the SBOT. The businesses and residents are members of Light Rail Links,

which recently formed as a result of the growing movement of individuals and groups advocating for Light Rail Transit (LRT) in Surrey. Light Rail Links is made up of community supporters that represent a variety of interests, including business, community and neighbourhood groups and the tourism sector.

Kulwinder was out for a walk with her husband on the evening of April 27, 2009 when she was struck by a pick-up truck in a rural area of Abbotsford. Responding officers were flagged down by her husband, who led them to a water-filled ditch where Gill had been thrown by the impact. Police seized a suspect vehicle with signs of damage dumped on acreage several blocks away. The incident was initially believed to be a hit-and-run accident, but police soon began investigating it as a suspicious death.

At that time, a fourth man – Sukhpal Johal, 26, of Surrey – was charged with conspiracy to commit murder and accessory after the fact. IHIT announced Wednesday that Johal’s conspiracy charge has since been changed to first-degree murder, and Sohi has been given an additional charge of accessory after the fact. All four are next scheduled to appear in Abbotsford Provincial Court on Monday, May 13.

have lost their souped-up cars and are now facing a host of fines and impoundment fees after the group was caught racing through West Vancouver on a midnight joyride. West Vancouver Police were first alerted to the group shortly after 11:30 p.m. on Friday when a report was called in to the Squamish RCMP that several drivers were travelling at very high speeds southbound on the Sea-to-Sky Highway. The Lower Mainland RCMP’s Air One helicopter was already doing patrols in the area and quickly joined the West Vancouver response. Air One officers located the group of eight cars and clocked them at speeds in excess of 142 km/h in an 80 km/h zone, according to a video released by the West Vancouver Police Department. The police chopper tracked the speeders while patrol officers set up a successful roadblock on Highway 1 just east of Eagleridge Drive. All eight vehicles were pulled over and towed away for immediate excessive speed impounds. The drivers, who were also issued tickets for excessive speeding, range in age from 21 to 25. Six drivers are from Vancouver, one is from Richmond and the other is from Surrey. Five Nissan 240SX cars with model years between 1989 and 1997 were impounded, as were a 1989 Nissan Skyline, a 1992 Toyota Mark II and a 2000 Acura Integra. All of the cars were in varying stages of high-performance modifications.

‘You’re not alone,’ teens told Woman fighting schizophrenia speaks at Delta school by Kevin Diakiw Watching her tell a
packed class of high school students about the voices in her head, it’s easy to forget Ashleigh Singleton kept those hallucinations a secret for two years. All the while she quietly suffered with the whispers urging her to kill herself. But last month, the 27-year-old Surrey resident told The Leader about her schizophrenia, her fears, the bullying and discrimination she faced, and also her self-mutilation and suicide attempts. Her story was part of a Hard to Help, a special series on mental illness and its devastating effects. At the time, Singleton said she felt she had to speak up so others don’t have to suffer. On Tuesday morning, she stood before a class of about 20 psychology students at North Delta Secondary School and talked again about her tumultuous childhood dealing with the disease that affects one per cent of the population. “You might look at me and think I’m a normal person, except for the piercings and the tattoos,” Singleton said, chuckling with the class. “What you don’t hear are the voices I hear every day – I have schizophrenia.” She doesn’t want anyone else to go through the same two years of self-imposed isolation that she did. “The reason I’m before all of you today is to let you know, you’re not alone,” she said. “No matter what you’re going through, if you’re feeling some of those symptoms of depression or even schizophrenia – speak up... it’s the only way we’re going to erase the stigma of mental illness.”
tara Joshi Singleton had been invited to the high school for its first ever Mental Health Awareness Day. The event was arranged in part by students Tara Joshi, 16, Heavenleigh Moore, 18, and Jordan Peries, 17. Pushing for the awareness day was difficult for the group, who have all grappled with
mental health issues. “I didn’t want to get help,” Peries said. “I didn’t want people to think I was weird.” Heavenleigh says mental illness is a challenging threat. “When someone comes at you with a knife, you can run,” she said. “When your mind attacks you, there’s nowhere to go.” Joshi also addressed the psychology class. Mental illness, she said, isn’t reserved for a select few. “It can happen to absolutely anyone,” Joshi said. “It’s time for us to talk about it.” She pointed out her anxiety disorder does not have obvious physical manifestations, causing many to say she wasn’t sick.
At first, she had no supports in place at all. “I was in a terrible state. I wouldn’t talk to anyone at school ever,” Joshi said. “I would stay in my room all day and not want to talk to anyone.” She urged the class not to ignore the signs of possible mental illness, and as soon as possible, speak to someone you can trust. “As youth, there’s so much we can do, and such a difference we can make,” she said. “We really, really need to talk about this and get people educated about this.” The group is hoping they can follow up with an annual Mental Health Awareness Day at the school.

Surrey/North Delta Leader 9
It’s time for some provincial pruning
EvEry orchardist knows a tree
must be regularly pruned to ensure high-quality fruit. Removing dead wood promotes fresh vigorous growth. If the tree has been well maintained, the job is easy. If the tree has been neglected, drastic measures are required. This brings us to Premier Christy Clark’s government. The B.C. Liberal party is long overdue for some severe pruning. The top has become a gnarly, twisted mess. Using the B.C. NDP as a tool to cut away the deception, arrogance and ineptitude seems to be the only option. If British Columbians want honest accountable governments in the future, then we must do some drastic pruning next week. Our province will be better managed when the party in power realizes the voters not only expect – but demand – a well-managed ethical government with affordable programs. If Adrian Dix and his NDP cronies are incapable of doing the job, then the B.C. Liberals should be revitalized with pragmatic polices and a new principled leader by the time the next election rolls around. Whether you agree or disagree with me, please honour the battered and bloodied champions of freedom by exercising your right to vote. Lloyd Atkins, Vernon
Your vote: Think it through i’m concErnEd that many British
Columbians are more focused on “change” for the sake of change rather than electing the party most likely to foster job creation and financial stability. Our province’s resource endowment has always been a mainstay of both jobs and the generation of revenues needed to fund social programs. From what I have seen and heard, an NDP government would rev-up spending while stymieing resource development through endless environmental reviews or by just saying “no,” driving investment to other provinces and other countries. We need new mines and gas fields, pipelines, refineries, ports and processing plants to replace jobs lost by tech change and by events like the pine beetle catastrophe Economic development and the protection of the environment are not mutually exclusive. Yes, we must
be good stewards of our beautiful province, but we do have the technology to move the economy forward in an environmentally responsible manner. We also need to focus on balancing the provincial budget, rather than taking money away from social programs to fund rising interest costs. Have the Liberals done everything right? Certainly not. The introduction of the HST by the Campbell government was badly handled. And while there is a natural inclination for people to vote to change long-governing parties, it’s important not to let the NDP sleepwalk to victory without thinking about which party is likely to
create jobs and not burden today’s young people with a mountain of debt. I’m not asking that you agree with me, only that you think through the full consequences of your choice carefully. And then get out and vote on May 14. Gwyn Morgan, Victoria Editor’s note: Gwyn Morgan is a retired businessman who lives in the Greater Victoria region. He is the former chair of SNC Lavalin, and is a director on the boards of several other large corporations, including EnCana Corporation. He has served as an advisor to Christy Clark.
A bad sign in Surrey driving through Surrey this
week, I am sickened by the sheer volume of Liberal party signs on public property. As if it weren’t enough to spend $16 million of our dollars on partisan ads, now they are blanketing our city with signs. I understand its part of the cam-
paign to put up signs but, do they really need to be on every corner? In the Cloverdale area some intersections have signs on all four corners. Is this a “sign” of what’s to come if they form government again? What a waste of money. Enough is enough.
Kara Kelso, Surrey
Where is the NDP finding the money? thE ndP is making a lot of noise
about poverty and how they are going to reduce it. To quote Adrian Dix: “We will take steps to reduce poverty and inequality in B.C.” On May 3 there was a meeting at the City Centre
Library, sponsored by the Surrey Poverty Reduction Coalition and vibrantsurrey.ca, and all the candidates were invited. Bruce Ralston, our twice-elected MLA for SurreyWhalley, chose not to attend. There is one visibly “poor” area in Surrey and it is Whalley, just blocks from where the forum was held. I’m curious to know what was so much more important in Mr. Ralston’s life that he couldn’t attend a 90-minute meet-and-greet and answer a few questions. I do not trust the NDP can keep their campaign promises without driving our economy further into debt. Where is Adrian Dix going to find the money to pay off the billions of dollars we are already in debt? I’m glad the arrogant Gordon Campbell is gone, but I’m sticking with the Liberals. Nix Dix. On May 14, I will be voting for B.C. Liberal candidate Kuljeet Kaur, a single mom, just like me. It’s time for some “new blood” in SurreyWhalley. Valerie Bowen
No need for schoolboy taunts at thE all-candidates’ meet-
ing for Surrey-Fleetwood and Surrey-Tynehead on May 6, there was a lively debate and diverse views. But Liberal Amrik Virk took it to another level. He made nasty, sharp, personal comments about every candidate present, even mocking some. Some of the audience were uncomfortable. He doesn’t appear to be a unintelligent man, so why the need for schoolboy taunts? And he claimed to stand for political decorum. That’s not the kind of conduct I want from my Surrey leaders. Deborah Payment, Surrey
Kudos to candidates thE PEninsula Homeless to
Housing Task Force held an all-candidates’ meeting on May 2 at the White Rock Christian Academy. We want to thank Marvin Hunt, Gordon Hogg and Stephanie Cadieux of the B.C. Liberals, Susan Keeping of the B.C. NDP, Don Pitcairn of the B.C. Greens, and Howard Wu of the B.C. Conservatives for their attendance. All candidates focused on articulating their different visions of what they would do as an MLA and did not spend time attacking other parties or candidates. Putting your name forward to run for public office can be difficult. We want to thank each one of these committed individuals for the respectful tone they maintained in addressing our concerns around poverty, food security and homelessness. Rev. Joan McMurtry Denise Darrell Co-Chairs, PH2H Task Force
Space for his zeal rE: “ndP to voters: Trust us,” Tom Fletcher, The Leader, May 7. Christy Clark can be given notable credit for serving the interests of big industry, the gratuitously wealthy, and those who share their frightening libertarian ideology. Unfortunately,
this includes most mainstream newspapers, not to mention prolific, anti-NDP libertarian zealot Fletcher, who’s getting large amounts of space in Metro community newspapers. Frank G. Sterle, Jr.
An ironic call for our support as a dedicated community
volunteer, many times I have appeared before the City of Surrey mayor and council to present issues brought forward by our Panorama Ridge Community Association. Coun. Marvin’s Hunt’s voting track record with respect to these submissions is perfect. He has voted against our community every single time, often the only member of council to oppose the community’s view. Considering his track record, I find it highly ironic that Mr. Hunt now wants to represent, and I assume “support,” SurreyPanorama as our MLA, as he certainly hasn’t “supported” us in the past. In addition, Mr. Hunt does not live in our riding, and if elected, proposes to simultaneously hold both city councillor and MLA positions (unless council decides to hold a bylelection). Most MLAs consider holding provincial office alone a more than full-time position; clearly Mr. Hunt does not. These are my personal opinions, not those of our community association, but issues that I think all voters of SurreyPanorama should be aware of when choosing their next MLA.

Premier Christy Clark is promising a replacement for the George Massey tunnel.
Liberals talk tunnel, but are shy on tolls Questions hang over promise of new Deas crossing
by Jeff Nagel While the proposed replace-
ment of the Massey Tunnel gets prominent play in the B.C. Liberals’ election platform, big question marks hang over exactly what will be built, where, and how it will be funded. Big signs on the approaches to the tube remind motorists of the planning process quickly launched by Premier Christy Clark last fall, and on Tuesday, Liberal candidates in Richmond waved to drivers at the tunnel. Transportation Minister Mary Polak said the accelerated replacement of the tunnel would relieve Highway 99 congestion, enhance B.C.’s economy and
make the province more competitive in Asia-Pacific trade. Public consultations to date have focused on whether to build a bridge or new tunnel and possibly shift the alignment. Absent from the debate so far is any talk about whether tolls will be imposed to pay for what’s sure to be a $1-billion-plus project. Tolling is a sore point for drivers now paying to cross the Port Mann Bridge. If the Massey Tunnel replacement and badly needed new Pattullo Bridge are both also tolled, drivers wanting a free crossing would have to take the Alex Fraser Bridge. Critics say that would make
a mockery of B.C.’s provincial tolling policy, which requires a reasonable free alternative to any newly tolled route. Asked recently if the new Massey crossing would be tolled, Clark said that’s undetermined and the province is just covering the planning costs so far. The Liberals have promised a referendum on new transit funding sources, such as a vehicle levy, but haven’t said if they’d also allow a vote on adding new tolls to replace bridges or tunnels that are the jurisdiction of the province, not TransLink.

to sail up the river to underused Fraser Surrey Docks. Metro planners recommend the port and province consider whether the proposed

The B.C. NDP has said the Massey Tunnel replacement is not a top priority but they would continue the planning process. B.C.

Road pricing divides parties
NOW OPEN
B.C. Liberals fail to respond to Metro election questions by Jeff Nagel Whether road pricing should
finance transit expansion in Metro Vancouver is one regional issue where the clearest lines have been drawn between provincial political parties. It’s one of the questions put to the parties ahead of the provincial election by the Metro regional district on its new advocacy website, localgovernmentmatters.ca. As of Monday, the B.C. Liberals had yet to respond but the B.C. NDP, Greens and Conservatives had all provided answers. Most responses, particularly from the NDP, pledge mainly to work with local government on key issues without taking a detailed position. On the question of enabling road pricing to raise more money for TransLink, the NDP say only they “will be open to a discussion with a reformed TransLink board.” As for how TransLink will be restructured, the NDP have only said they would put municipal elected representatives back on the board, without spelling out details. The Greens go farthest to endorse higher charges for motorists to drive in the region, saying they support a variety of
strategies including road pricing, parking pricing and congestion pricing. B.C. Conservatives are staunchly against road pricing. “Drivers should not be punished with tolls and taxes at every road and bridge to pay for TransLink,” said the Conservatives’ response. The B.C. Liberals, who have been under fire from Conservative candidates in Surrey for introducing tolls on the Port Mann Bridge, have promised a November 2014 referendum on new funding sources for TransLink. B.C. Liberal leader Christy Clark has said she opposes tolls on existing roads and bridges. Clark said the referendum would allow voters to block new funding to TransLink if they don’t support it, although Transportation Minister Mary Polak had previously suggested the referendum would make voters provide more revenue to TransLink one way or another, by choosing the most acceptable source. Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender, who is running for the B.C. Liberals in Surrey, said he’s unsure why his party had not yet responded to Metro’s questions. B.C. Conservative responses highlight their plans to scrap
the carbon tax, although critics question where the lost revenue would be recovered. The NDP pledge to redirect some carbon tax revenue (now going to corporate tax reduction) to public transit initiatives. The Greens support a more “robust” increased carbon tax. They say while using some of the increase for transit may make sense, the revenue-neutral model – where income taxes drop as the carbon tax rises – gives people a stronger incentive over the longer term to choose a loweremission lifestyle. Other NDP pledges in the responses to Metro include ending a BC Liberal requirement that provincial grants go to municipal or regional infrastructure projects only if they’ve been studied as potential publicprivate partnerships (P3s). On how to protect viable agricultural land in the ALR from encroachment by industry, the NDP pledge to renew the Agricultural Land Commission and protect the ALR, in concert with various support programs for agriculture. The Greens caution the ALR is “popular with urbanites” but can hurt farmers as it restricts their ability to realize a reasonable return from their land when they retire.

Ridings in focus: SURREY-GREEN TIMBERS by Rick Kupchuk In a constituency with a large, ethnic
population, B.C. NDP MLA Sue Hammell has been popular. She won the provincial elections in 1991 and 1996, serving as a cabinet member in the NDP government in several ministries. Defeated by B.C. Liberal Brenda Locke in 2001, an election in which the NDP was reduced to just two seats, Hammell regained the seat in 2005 with 61 per cent of the vote – increasing her support to 73 per cent in the 2009 election. This year, Liberal candidate Dr. Amrik Tung will attempt to reverse the trend in Green Timbers, a riding in which the Liberal party managed just 24 per cent of the vote four years ago. Richard Hosein is the Green party candidate, Lisa Maharaj is running for the B.C. Conservatives, and Harjit Singh Heir is the B.C. Vision candidate. With slightly more than 60 per cent of its immigrant population coming from India, Surrey-Green Timbers is one of five ridings in the province where English is spoken the least. Close to 60 per cent of the population usually speaks Punjabi while at home, another 20 per cent speak Hindi.
According to 2006 Census figures, the percentage of residents who lived outside Canada five years earlier is among the highest in Surrey-Green Timbers. The provincial average is 5.3 per cent, a rate that is almost twice that in Surrey-Green Timbers, where roughly 23 per cent of the population has immigrated between 2000-06. Roughly 70 per cent of the population is a visible minority. There are more young people living in the riding than all but one other electoral district. Only SurreyNewton has a higher rate of residents under the age of 18. A little more than 50 per cent of residents aged 25 to 64 have an education consisting of a high school diploma or less, well above the provincial average of 38.2 per cent.
Surrey-Green Timbers fast facts: • 2006 population: 52,595 • 2011 Population: 57,540 • Increase: 9.4% • Median age: 34.6 • Non-English mother tongue: 68% • Average income: $63,315

B.C. CONSERVATIVES 1. Name, education, and residence: My name is Lisa Maharaj, I am 33 years old and have lived in Surrey-Green Timbers for the last 10 years. I graduated from Stenberg College (Surrey campus).
Black Press ElEction day in B.C.
is May 14. Under the B.C. Election Act, voters must prove their identity and residential address before casting a ballot. Government-issued identification with a photograph and residential address, such as a driver’s licence or B.C. ID Card, is sufficient. Voters can also present two other documents – such as a where-to-vote card, a BC Hydro, telephone or similar bill with your residential address, or a property tax bill – as proof of residency and identification.

balancing a career, I am facing the same tough realities that other parents face. Voting for me,will give the people of Green Timbers a local voice that speaks for them. I am not a politician, I am a regular person who is running to give people a choice. I will vote in the best interest of local issues, instead of voting along party lines as many MLAs do. 3. What are the most significant issues facing your riding and what
would you do about them? We are fortunate that the riding has many great parks and facilities, such as Bear Creek Park, Surrey Memorial Hospital, the new Jim Pattison Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre. However, we need to address issues with transportation infrastructure, while ensuring we protect green spaces. We must address education issues in local schools, such as overcrowding, but also quality of education. Green
Timbers has many young families, but also many seniors. We must work with all parties to ensure that we are delivering timely and appropriate health care. 4. What are the most significant issues facing B.C. and what would you do about them? Sadly, there are many critical issues facing B.C. I believe now is a time to look to the future and plan our direction. Honesty and accountability must be brought into B.C.
politics. We the taxpayer are in charge, and the government must be aware of this. We need to build B.C. for our children, increase jobs, have a vibrant economy, and reduce health care costs and education funding wastage. Making a plan and investing today will pay off in the future. B.C. Conservatives will eliminate the carbon tax and offer tax credits to BC Ferries and Port Mann Bridge users. People are being taxed too heavily, we need to reverse this.
Advance polls now open
by Tom Fletcher
advancE pollS are now open across B.C., and Elections BC is working on getting more people to vote early. Elections BC surveyed voters after the 2009 election, which saw overall turnout fall to a record low 51 per cent of eligible voters. The most common reason given for not voting was being too busy on election day, set for Tuesday, May 14. All 85 constituencies have advance polling locations open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. each day from May 8 to May 11. With hours of operation extended in
recent years, 17.5 per cent of 2009 votes were cast in advance polls. “We know voters are busy and we look for innovative ways to make the provincial electoral process effective, efficient and accessible,” said Chief Electoral Officer Keith Archer. Eligibility and identification requirements, and a list of advance and election day polling places is available at http://bit.ly/16hAonm Registered voters should bring their voting cards and either one piece of government ID or two documents such as utility bills or bank statements that show the voter’s name and residential address.

HEALTH CARE
Bill 29 still casts a shadow on the system
One of a series comparing party platforms on an issue-by-issue basis. by Tom Fletcher
NDP leaDer Adrian Dix
has promised to repeal the remainder of Bill 29, the legislation that broke union contracts and allowed contracting out of health support services early in the B.C. Liberal term of government. Parts of that legislation were struck down in a 2007 ruling by the Supreme Court of Canada, and the government was forced to pay compensation and consult with unions before any further contracting out of services. In a pre-campaign interview with Guardian, the Hospital Employees’ Union magazine, Dix made no specific commitments.
“We are going to need to improve and strengthen the public role if we are going to continue to provide a high level of service, given the federal cuts that are coming to health care in 2014-15,” Dix told the HEU publication. After a string of sixper-cent increases, the growth of health care transfers is capped at four per cent starting next year. After signing a series of “net zero” contracts with various public service unions in the past year, the B.C. Liberals tabled an election budget proposing to hold health spending growth to two per cent this year. In 2008, the B.C. Liberal government passed amendments to comply with the court ruling that collective bargaining rights are constitutionally protected. The ruling
didn’t reverse pay cuts, but ordered payment of $80 million in compensation and retraining, and required negotiations before any further contracting out of health care jobs. Judy Darcy, then secretarybusiness manager of the HEU and now the NDP candidate in New Westminster, said at the time that the legislation allowed the government
Platform highlights:
and the union to “move on and build some kind of a partnership.”
• The B.C. Liberals emphasize their legislative change to allow Licensed Practical Nurses to leave the HEU and join the B.C. Nurses’ Union. The party wants to “partner with hospice societies” to double hospice beds by 2020. • The B.C. NDP distances itself from public-
private partnerships to build and run hospitals. It promises to “accelerate” Surrey Memorial Hospital’s critical care expansion “as a public project,” and Dix has said 30-year contracts are too long for health care facilities. • The B.C. Conservative platform criticizes the B.C. Liberals for spending less than the national average on health care, and for raising Medical Services Plan premiums. Party leader John Cummins has
joined the B.C. Liberals and NDP in promising an expansion for the 63-year-old Penticton Regional Hospital. • The B.C. Green party promises to “support development of co-ops and social enterprises for the provision of community-based health, social and education services.” It also wants to expand MSP coverage for chiropractic, physiotherapy, eye exams and massage therapy, and impose a junk food tax.

Deltaport: May well ‘turn out to be do-able,’ pundit says From page 18 “I think they’ve got some wiggle room,” said B.C. Green party leader Jane Sterk. “I think they could argue that if the tankers are going down south of the border, it’s not in B.C. waters.” Nor does B.C. Yukon Building and Construction Trades Council executive director Tom Sigurdson yet take the NDP’s position as a definitive rejection of the Trans Mountain pipeline twinning. “For us, we’re moving as though there’s a possibility,” he said, adding representatives for unionized workers remain in talks with pipeline builders on the hope thousands of construction jobs will materialize, even under an NDP government. “We continue our discussions as though something may happen.” Husky Energy’s CEO has also predicted “extreme” anti-pipeline rhetoric will subside after the election. The $5.4-billion pipeline project from Alberta to the Lower Mainland would nearly triple the amount of oil flowing to 890,000 barrels per day and send hundreds more tankers through coastal waters. The issue resurfaced earlier this week when former B.C. Liberal leader turned NDPer Gordon Wilson endorsed Premier Christy Clark and the B.C. Liberals, in part citing the NDP’s position on Kinder Morgan. Wilson said the NDP sought to woo Green voters while Horgan secretly met with Kinder Morgan to assure the
firm an NDP government would still be ready to deal after the election. While the NDP has consistently opposed Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline plan, Dix had previously said it was premature to take a position until Kinder Morgan tables a formal proposal. B.C. Liberal energy minister Rich Coleman also called Horgan’s April 23 meeting with Kinder Morgan an attempt at a “wink-wink, nudgenudge” message to the company that a deal may still be possible. But Coleman said the NDP’s all-but-total rejection – even before a formal proposal is made – will “scare away investment” and send the message the province is closed to business. “If it’s ‘no’ at the beginning, why would you bother starting?” SFU marketing professor Lindsey Meredith said it made perfect sense for the NDP to stake out a position against more oil tanker shipments through Burrard Inlet, given the concentration of concerned voters there. And he said it likewise makes sense to keep the door open a crack to a different, less contentious terminal because B.C. still needs jobs and oil pipeline revenue. He said Deltaport or a Washington terminal “may well turn out to be do-able.” Meredith predicts an NDP victory will spur Kinder Morgan to busily rework the twinning proposal with a different outlet.
Good things come to those who wait. And by ‘good things’ we mean sweet, sweet cash.

a rally Saturday in Vancouver there should be full public hearings on a proposal by Fraser Surrey Docks to build a new terminal on the Fraser River. Dix called the exports of U.S. thermal coal through the planned terminal a distinct issue
from the B.C.-mined steelmaking coal that makes up the bulk of coal shipped through the region so far. “This is a positive step forward,” said Kevin Washbrook of the group Voters Taking Action on Climate Change.
He has spearheaded opposition to new or expanded coal terminals, assembling a coalition of climate change activists along with local residents worried about coal dust and other impacts. See PORT / Page 22

Port: Metro Vancouver has final say on the new Surrey terminal From page 20 Port Metro Vancouver, the federally appointed port authority, has the final say on the new terminal and has indicated it could make a decision by early summer. Washbrook said he wants the NDP to go further and agree, if elected, to either undertake a provincial review of the Fraser Surrey Docks plan or else conduct their own public hearings. While it’s unclear how the province could block a federal approval of a new coal terminal, Washbrook thinks the NDP’s stance adds to the weight of opposition. “Pretty much everyone now is calling on the port to consult more broadly,” Washbrook said. “If they don’t listen to these

appeals, they’re not going to have a social licence to build this [coal] port.” Coal is currently shipped out of Deltaport and a terminal in North Vancouver and the port’s existing coalhandling capacity is 51.5 million tonnes. The Fraser Surrey Docks terminal would ship just four million tonnes initially but could expand to eight million and critics argue it’s the first major jump here in U.S. coal exports, which have been largely blocked by opponents of new terminals in Washington State. Open houses on the proposal are promised for later this month. Coal expansion opponents say the issue will be the focus of a candidates’ forum ADVERTISING FEATURE Thursday night in Surrey, at 6:30 at Surrey City Centre library (information to follow).
Community dialogue on coal transport Are you concerned
about coal being shipped through your community? Village Surrey, Voters Taking Action on Climate Change, and South Fraser Unitarian Congregation are hosting a Community Dialogue: Coal, Climate Change and the Upcoming B.C. Election, on Thursday, May 9 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at City Centre Library, room 120. Fraser Surrey Docks plans to transport between four and eight million tones of coal per year from their port on the banks of the Fraser River. The coal is mined in Montana and Wyoming, and brought to Canada by train. To get to the Fraser Surrey Docks, the coal trains will travel, uncovered,
through White Rock, Surrey and Delta along the way. Once at Fraser Surrey Docks, the coal would be transferred to barges, then shipped down the Fraser River, across the Georgia Strait, to Texada Island, where it would be transferred to bigger ships and sent to Asia. The following politicians have been invited to the community forum: • Provincial MLA candidates from Surrey, Delta and New Westminster; • Mayors from Delta, Surrey, New Westminster, Richmond and White Rock; • Federal MPs for Surrey, Delta and New Westminster. The public is invited to come and ask them questions about this issue.

No reprieve for condo owner ordered out Rose Jordison and her adult son hoped to keep Surrey home pending appeal by Sheila Reynolds A mom And son who
were ordered to move out and sell their Surrey condominium lost a last-ditch effort to stay in their home last month. In a March 20 decision of the B.C. Supreme Court, Rose Jordison and her adult son were told they had 30 days to get out – the result of being in contempt of court for breaching an earlier order that they abide by the rules of the condo complex and respect their neighbours. The Jordisons were actually ordered to sell their Guildfordarea condo in January 2012 after Supreme Court Justice Richard Blair found that years of harassment and
“...they have failed to appear to present their case when given the opportunity.” Justice Harvey Groberman noise amounted to an “assault” on other residents. However, the mom and son appealed the ruling and won, allowing them to stay, on the condition they refrain from being noisy and offensive to other condo owners. After breaching those terms, the ear-
lier ruling was upheld and they were told in March to move out and sell within 30 days. The Jordisons appealed again, asking that the order to move and sell be stayed pending the appeal. Justice Edward Chiasson agreed to delay the sale order until after the appeal, but refused to let the Jordisons stay in their home past April 30. The Jordisons then applied to have that decision reviewed by the B.C. Court of Appeal, arguing they never had the opportunity to fully present their case – something three appeal court justices said wasn’t true. “It would be more accurate to say that they have failed to
appear to present their case when given the opportunity,” wrote B.C. Court of Appeal Justice Harvey Groberman in a decision dated April 29. Justices Ian Donald and Nicole Garson concurred. An earlier judgment said the Jordison’s didn’t show up to at least two court dates in January and February.

School workers vote to strike
Surrey joins other CUPE locals across the province by Sheila Reynolds The union representing approximately 3,840 school support workers in Surrey, including clerical workers, education assistants, and caretakers, has voted 87 per cent in favour of striking. Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) Local 728 held its vote in late April and joins more than a dozen locals representing thousands of employees provincewide who have also authorized strike action.
The union argues bargaining talks with the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association have broken down because the employer is standing by the provincial government’s net-zero mandate and is unwilling to negotiate a wage increase – which school CUPE workers haven’t had since 2009. Provincial bargaining began last November on behalf of 27,000 education support workers provincewide. CUPE will plan its next steps in the coming weeks.

The truth is, most weight loss programs work – at least for some people. They work because they cut calories and follow the basic principles of weight loss. But they do not all work for everyone. You are an individual with a unique genetic makeup, unique metabolism, unique health challenges, unique needs and unique barriers to weight loss. So it is not surprising that a one-size-fits-all approach is not the best answer for you. Your individuality needs to be taken into account. Your weight loss program should provide you with the results you are looking for, and lead to changes that you can easily maintain through the rest of your life.

Chain of violence must stop, says victim’s dad 28-year-old Craig Widdifield gunned down on April 24 by Alex Browne Close to 300 people
Craig Widdifield “A piece of our hearts, a piece of our soul has gone with you, but you’re gone, gone, gone… this anger and this fear must stop, stop right now, before other lives are lost.” Many in the audi-
ence were tearful when Craig Widdifield’s wife, Teresa, spoke at the lectern clutching their young son. She recalled his “silliness, story-telling and jokes,” and spoke of a loss that was hard to accept. Pastor Jeff Renaud read a statement from Widdifield’s mother, Nadia. She recalled an easy-going young man with a fondness for practical jokes, who had managed to graduate high school without ever appearing to do any homework. “We lost him for a few years,” her statement said. “Then he met Teresa and we got him back again.” newsroom@surreyleader.com

packed the chapel at Victory Memorial Park Friday for a celebration of life for Craig Widdifield, the man gunned down in a Morgan Crossing parking lot April 24 in what police have called a “targeted, gang-associated killing.” While family and many friends filed into the chapel to a slide show of pictures of Widdifield, wife Teresa and their son, others gathered, too. Outside, police cars blocked entranceways to the parking lots and uniformed RCMP officers watched those arriving for the memorial, while sharp-eyed men in suits and ties stayed in the lobby during the event, evidently scanning the crowd and late arrivals for any sign of a potential disturbance of the gathering. Many of those in the crowd were older members of the community with ties to Widdifield and his family; many others were young people of the same generation as Widdifield, who died at age 28. Most came to remember him as he was described by friends and family members: a “loving son, husband, father and brother,” noted for his humour, his storytelling and practical jokes, his keen interest in the world around him, and above all, his generosity. But in a short, sometimes tearful address to mourners, Widdifield’s father, Jim, had a specific message for those who may have been associates in what has been acknowledged as his son’s former gang-oriented lifestyle. “A huge piece of our lives has been torn away by a senseless act,” he said. “There’s a lot of anger and fear out there.” But Jim Widdifield appealed to those who had known his son not to act out of a desire for revenge, but to share any information they may have about
his death with police. “Violence begets violence,” he said. “This chain of violence must stop now. We don’t want Craig’s death to stand for nothing or have been in vain. Please honour Craig by not sullying his memory with more violence.” Underlining the message was a song written for the occasion by the elder Widdifield, who is known to many in the community as keyboardist for the Compound Blues Band. Sung by Calla Krause, with piano accompaniment by Barry Powell, its lyrics were a strong reiteration of his theme:

Surrey pot grower loses house appeal Trong Vu’s property seized by federal goverment after marijuana grow-op conviction
by Sheila Reynolds A Surrey man con-
victed of having a marijuana grow operation in his home has lost his bid to keep his family’s house. Trong Hieu Vu was convicted in January 2009 of three charges, including producing and possessing a controlled substance, as well as electricity theft. The charges against Vu arose after a search of the home in November 2006, when police
found a grow-op in the basement and an electrical cable bypassing the hydro metre. On Nov. 16, 2006 Vu was sentenced to six months in jail, and pursuant to Canadian law, was ordered to forfeit his house to the federal government. In a decision posted online Monday (May 6), B.C. Court of Appeal’s Madam Justice Catherine Anne Ryan rejected an appeal by Vu and upheld the seizure of the home.
The fate of the house, located in the 16000 block of 85B Avenue, has been up in the air for several years. The situation was complicated by the fact that Trong Vu didn’t actually own the home as it was in the name of his former wife, Hanh Thi Vu. In 2011, Hanh Vu attempted to appeal the forfeiture decision, arguing Trong must have set it up after the couple separated and she left him two
months before the search. The B.C. Court of Appeal, however, wouldn’t consider her appeal as only a convicted person can appeal such a forfeiture order. Hanh Vu was never charged in connection to the grow-op. Trong Vu subsequently filed his own appeal and his hearing was held last June. Trong argued that the judge erred in finding his former wife likely knew about the growop, and that the judge
didn’t properly consider the impact seizing the home would have on his family. Justice Ryan, however, agreed with the initial ruling that the various sizes of the marijuana plants indicated the grow-op was likely older than two months and the house and wiring modifications were such that Hanh Vu must have known about it. Ryan also rejected that the house was the family’s principal

Ask a Pro Renovation Seminar + Expo to take place on May 16
GVHBA to hold renovation seminar The Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association will hold its popular Ask a Pro Renovation Seminar + Expo on May 16 at the Croatian Cultural Centre in Vancouver. “Home renovation continues to be popular and there is no shortage of fly-by-night operators taking advantage of trusting homeowners,” says GVHBA CEO Bob de Wit. “Dealing in the cash-only underground economy to avoid tax, rather than working with a professional renovator, exposes homeowners to liability issues and close scrutiny from municipal bylaw officials, provincial safety authorities and others.” Participants will learn about the
stages of the renovation process, including finding a renovator, permits and design. Presenters include renovators, a lawyer, a finance expert and a municipal building official. The exhibition area will be open between 5:30 and 7:30 to allow homeowners to speak with the more than 30 experts in attendance beforehand, and then the seminar will follow from 7:30 to 9. Admission is free, but homeowners are asked to pre-register and bring a food item for the Greater Vancouver Food Bank Society. To register, visit www.gvhba.org, email signmeup@ gvhba.org or call 778-565-4288.
Chilliwack retirement living
Retire in style at Englewood Courtyard By Kerry Vital
Resort-style retirement living has come to Chilliwack at Englewood Courtyard. With amenities right on-site and elegant homes that are perfect for downsizers, it’s not hard to see why the project is already so popular. “We wanted to build a community atmosphere,” says realtor Kathy Virtanen. “This is the place you’re looking for if you want a sense of community. You don’t always see that anymore.” Englewood Courtyard is part of a master-planned community just for adults over the age of 45 called Englewood Village. Residents will find leisure activities, shopping, entertainment and restaurants close by; outdoor activities are particularly easy to find at Englewood Courtyard, with its close proximity to Cultus Lake and Chilliwack Lake. Among the amenities on-site is a parking lot for RVs and Club Englewood, a 2,500 square-foot clubhouse with an exercise area, social lounge, kitchen, reflecting pond and a spa. You can also enjoy a patio barbecue area, bocce courts, community garden and a dog park, Virtanen says.
“
We wanted to build a community atmosphere,” says realtor Kathy Virtanen.
Chilliwack has long been a popular place for Lower Mainland retirees due to its lower real estate prices, beautiful scenery and relaxing atmosphere, so it comes as no surprise that buyers have been very interested in purchasing at Englewood Courtyard. Virtanen notes that she often hears buyers saying the good value, size of the homes and great design are the reasons they are interested in the project, along with the simply amazing views of the local mountains and rural surroundings. The first phase is currently on sale, with 40 one- and two-bedroom condominium residences ranging from 879 to 1,400 square feet in a variety of floorplans. This phase of Englewood Courtyard will be the first five-storey wood frame building in Chilliwack, and will be followed by two four-storey
buildings in the later phases. Those concerned about sound travelling between the condos will find peace of mind in knowing that there will be plenty of sound reduction between each home. The residences themselves are spacious and open, and are built with West Coast-style architecture that includes glass railings and plenty of windows to let the light pour in. Each home features nine to 12-foot vaulted ceilings, laminate flooring, maple shaker-style cabinetry, granite countertops and a gas fireplace, among other beautiful features. Airconditioning for those hot summer months is also included, along with underground parking for your convenience. The condos will be built using SAFERhome standards that allow you to age-in-place, so you won’t have to worry about moving again in your golden years. If you’re in the mood for a little bit of the outdoors, you can relax on your own covered balcony or private terrace. Homes at Englewood Courtyard start at $184,900. For more information, visit www.englewoodcourtyard.ca, call 604-824-8232, or visit the presentation centre at 45750 Keith Wilson Road, Chilliwack. The presentation centre is open between 12 and 4 every day.

The homes at Englewood Courtyard feature beautiful views over Chilliwack, along with gourmet kitchens, covered balconies or patios, spacious floorplans and plenty of natural light.

Shelter opened May 6 at the corner of Tilbury Road and Hopcott Road in the Tilbury Industrial Park of Delta. The new shelter will provide appropriate space for dogs, cats, and small animals while they await their forever-homes. “I’m very happy that we have moved the animals from our old location into a building that will allow for better care of the animals, and suit-
able space for our staff and our many dedicated volunteers,” said Delta Mayor Lois Jackson. Delta cleared the property after 2011 and began construction through a design-build contract with Humphrey Construction Ltd. The new shelter features 18 dog pens including undercover outdoor areas, two covered dog runs, five separate cat rooms, and space for small animals, shelter staff and volunteers.

Black Press Kitten Rescue Association (VOKRA), a volunteerrun organization dedicated to the rescue of homeless cats in Surrey and surrounding municipalities, will be left without its operating facilities after the City of Surrey Animal Resource Centre’s upcoming move to a Cloverdale location. VOKRA currently runs its Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program from a building at the Animal Resource Centre’s 6706 152 St. site. The group is seeking the help of the local community in finding a suitable new space in central Surrey to continue its operations. The goal of the Surrey branch of VOKRA is to help curb the number of homeless cats found on Surrey streets. Since it began operations in this area in early 2011, more than 900 cats have been spayed and neutered by VOKRA. “We are absolutely devastated to be losing our Trap-Neuter-Return centre,” said volunteer Christine Johnson. “We are very thankful that the city has allowed us to operate from its Animal Resource Center on 152nd Street for the past year. Since we started our work in Surrey, our volunteers have been able to help over 900 abandoned cats. The loss of the TNR centre will mean an immediate halt to our work.” It is estimated that there are more than 12,000 free roaming cats in Surrey. At VOKRA’s centre, cats that are humanely trapped from the streets are first brought for assessment and care. Cats are then taken to a vet to be spayed or neutered, tattooed, vaccinated, and treated for any other medical issues. After a short stay in the TNR centre to recover from their surgeries, cats are returned to site if it is safe to do so, relocated to a barn if it is not, or placed in a foster home if the cats are tame and adoptable. TNR stabilizes the feral cat population by preventing further reproduction, while also improving and protecting the lives of the existing feral cats and pet cats that are allowed to be outdoors. The group is seeking a building with at least a 20x15-foot space in central Surrey that offers access to electricity, running water, and 24/7 access. Ideally, a washroom facility would also be available. Alternatively, if a parcel of land can be made available, VOKRA will fundraise to place a suitable building on-site. Community members and businesses that can provide building space, land or donations are encouraged to contact VOKRA at surreyvokra@ live.com If you can help or want more information, visit www.vokra.ca
officer Craig Daniell said in a statement. “As we move forward, it is very important that we hear from our supporters, our staff and volunteers, community leaders, veterinarians and members of the public about their priorities for animals in our province.” Daniell noted that the overwhelming number of animal issues in B.C. creates a challenge for the donor-supported organization as it decides how best to use its resources to create more humane com-

How long does it take for wool to get from sheep to shawl? Watch Lower Mainland spinning and weaving guilds as they demonstrate ancient techniques of spinning yarn and weaving cloth at the Surrey Museum’s annual Sheep to Shawl Competition on May 11. Visitors can watch as four teams compete to make a woven shawl in less than four hours. Starting with raw, washed sheep’s wool, each team will work together to card, spin, ply and weave a shawl on traditional looms. The competition is from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with the winners announced at 4 p.m. This traditional “sheep to shawl” or “sheep to coat” contest is carried out in many sheep-producing countries throughout the world. Each team prepares in advance, practising their spinning skills and studying the type of fleece they will use (this year from a polypay sheep.) From 1-2:30 p.m., families can watch a demonstration of traditional sheep shearing. They can also try their hand at spinning on the museum’s spinning wheels or weave a book mark on special inkle looms, with assistance from experienced staff and volunteers. Folk singers will create an authentic atmosphere as they entertain visitors with traditional sheep and wool songs. Admission is by donation. The Surrey Museum is located at 17710 56A Ave. For more information, call 604-592-6956 or visit www.surrey.ca/ heritage

deal, small tropicals or hanging baskets certainly are not the answer. I would suggest something like an
outdoor garden. Larger patio tubs can go a long while between waterings and the addition of a small tree can make quite a difference to a patio. Containers about the size of a half barrel, such as large 50-centimetre cedar tubs or terracotta pots, can make an attractive permanent garden. By using lightweight soil mixes, the weight problem can be minimized. If you add cast-

COMUNITY CHARTER, S.B.C. 2003, CHAPTER 26 NOTICE OF INTENTION TO DISPOSE OF CITY PROPERTY - SECTIONS 26 AND 94
Pursuant to Sections 26 and 94 of the Community Charter, S.B.C. 2003, Chapter 26, as amended, the City of Surrey hereby gives notice of the intention to dispose of the following RF, Single Family zoned building lot: Civic Addresses: 14547 – 72 Avenue, Surrey, BC Legal Description: Lot 1 Section 22 Township 2 New Westminster District Plan BCP 43299; PID No.: 028-122-674 Property Description: The property is a ±585.1 m² (6,298 ft.²) Single Family (RF) Zone building lot located in the East Newton North NCP area, Surrey. It has service connections to municipal sanitary, storm, and water mains. A restrictive covenant covering design guidelines/house plan is registered on title for the property.
ers to the bottom of the pots, they can be easily moved if necessary, or if you just want to change the perspective. The types of trees that can be used as focal points in the containers are really unlimited, but some of my favourites are the new Japanese willow Hakara Nishiki, with its variegated white and pink foliage, standard forms of dwarf conifers, or the many smaller Japanese maples. These trees change with each season and also leave room for colourful annuals, perennials, bulbs and even herbs to make a wonderful showing all year round. Hanging baskets and colourful patio tubs are nice gifts too, but make sure they are large enough that they do not require daily attention. There are so many being mass produced today, so try to find something unique and that has a personal touch. The containers need to be a minimum of 16-18 inches across and deep to keep the maintenance down. If you are giving a gift of fuchsias or begonias, make sure they are going to a shady location. Nothing is more disheartening than receiving a gift that you know will have to struggle to survive. Large herb gardens
Japanese maple are colourful and a delightful culinary surprise. Why not put together a basic containerized vegetable garden and include the latest compact growing vegetables like Tumbler tomatoes, everbearing strawberries, a host of new colourful leaf lettuce varieties and everbearing Rainbow Swiss chard? Planting a tree for special occasions is not only a nice commemorative gesture, but is also a good environmental plan. This is especially true in urban areas. There are many kinds of trees that are wellsuited to small gardens, but I have a few suggestions, such as Japanese maples, Japanese snowbells, beautiful pink dogwoods, tree form magnolias, and the weeping katsura tree. Flowering trees that attract birds or butterflies to the yard are wonderful. Buddleias

(butterfly bush), especially the new Proven Winners dwarf variety, Lo & Behold, really do attract all kinds of beautiful butterflies. The fast-growing new orange-flowered vine called Campsis Indian Summer attracts hummingbirds. Flowering crabapples, like the new diseasefree Red Jewel and the red-flowered Prairie Fire have pleasing fall fruits which attract birds. The Korean or kousa dogwood not only has gorgeous blossoms and great fall colour, but also has edible seed pods. There are all kinds of fall berried plants like weeping cotoneasters, espalliered pyracanthas and lingonberries that look great in the landscape by providing winter colour and supplying food for birds as well. Moms enjoy fra-
grance, and there are all kinds of choices. From the new Proven Winners compact Bloomerang lilac that blooms now and again in fall to the fragrant snowball shrub (Viburnum carcephalum), and from elegant Oriental lilies to old-fashioned English roses, there is much from which to choose. Perennial plants are always appreciated, and peonies, old fashioned hardy orchids (bletilla), ruffled poppies and lavenders are among the most cherished. Water on the patio is now a huge trend. Containers that hold water are quite magnificent filled with floating water hyacinths, water lilies and myriad colourful flowering water plants. All of these suggestions are gifts that will last and for the most part, grow in beauty each year. You might even plant Mom’s gift for her – in the right location of course. Be a little creative this year. It is not only the flowers and plants but also the innovative ways in which they can be used and enjoyed, either inside or out, that makes the difference. Add your own special touch, and it will mean a great deal more.

The Surrey Eagles celebrate winning the Western Canada Cup Saturday night at Nanaimo’s Frank Crane Arena. The Eagles defeated the Brooks Bandits 4-1 to win the inaugural WCC and earn a berth in the Royal Bank Cup national championship tournament which starts Saturday in Prince Edward Island. GreG SaKaKi BLacK PreSS
Eagles the best in the west Junior A team wins inaugural Western Canada Cup in Nanaimo
Nick Greenizan ThE SuRREy Eagles’ trophy collection continues to grow, and just one more – the RBC Cup – remains left in their aim. The Eagles, already winners of the BC Hockey League’s Cliff McNab, Ron Boileau Memorial Trophy and Fred Page Cup – for winning the Coastal Conference, regular-season title and playoff title, respectively – added a fourth piece of silverware Saturday, beating the Brooks Bandits 4-1 in Nanaimo to claim top spot at the Crescent Point Energy Western Canada Cup. The victory also earned Surrey a berth in the upcoming RBC Cup national championships, May 11-19 in Summerside, P.E.I. “At the beginning of the season, if you asked me if we would have won, it wouldn’t have crossed my mind,” said Demico Hannoun, who was named Surrey’s player-of-the-game. “But it’s a great feeling right now.” The win over Brooks – the Alberta Junior Hockey League champions – avenged a round-robin loss a week earlier, when the Bandits jumped out to an early lead en route to a 4-2 win. This time around, the Eagles were the aggressors in the game’s early stages, taking a 1-0 lead midway through the
first period when rookie defenceman scorer, added a late goal for the Albertans.

continue to get better as the week went on, and I thought we played our best game tonight.” The trip to the RBC Cup is the third in franchise history for the Eagles, who made back-to-back trips to nationals in 1997 and ‘98. In a strange twist, the ‘97 tournament – in which the Eagles lost in the finals to the Summerside Western Capitals – was also held in Summerside. A year later, the Eagles won the Nanaimo-hosted Royal Bank Cup, with a roster that included Erhart on defence. “It’s a fun week for the organization, but our goal is to win the RBC. That’s been our goal since we started the playoffs, and this is just another step,” Erhart said. BLUE LINES: In addition to the Eagles and Bandits, other teams at the RBC will be the Truro Bearcats, Minnesota Wilderness and host Summerside Western Capitals. On Friday, prior to the final two days of competition, Surrey Eagles defenceman Devon Toews – who had six assists in five games – was named the Western Canada Cup MVP, while Santaguida was named the tournament’s top goaltender. Brady Shaw – who finished tied with Best for the tournament scoring lead with eight points – Toews and Santaguida were all named to the alltournament team.

Chiefs top Reds, lose three at home Conner Chorpita gets three hits in victory over Coquitlam
by Rick Kupchuk Two days after picking
up their second win of the B.C. Premier Baseball League season, the Whalley Chiefs have lost three straight. The Chiefs dropped two games to the visiting Victoria Mariners Sunday afternoon at Whalley Stadium. They were then blanked Tuesday night in Whalley, with the White Rock Tritons posting a 7-0 victory. The Eagles rocked three Whalley pitchers for 17 hits in Sunday’s first game, winning by a 9-1 margin. Malcolm Upton drove in the only Chiefs run, scoring
Garrett Hasner with a sacrifice fly in the fourth inning. The Chiefs outhit Victoria 9-6 in the rematch, but a seventhinning rally fell one run short in a 6-5 loss. The Eagles took a 3-2 lead into the final inning, and stretched the lead to four runs before Whalley came up to bat in the bottom half of the inning. They scored three times, but couldn’t push a tying run across the plate. Hasner and Colton Wright had two hits each to pace the Chiefs offense, with Hasner collecting his second double of the season. Graham Bailey took
the loss for Whalley, allowing three runs (two unearned) on three hits and five walks. He fanned six Eagles batters over six innings. Conner Chorpita collected three hits, including his third double of the season, and drove in two runs to lead the Chiefs to a 5-3 victory over the Coquitlam Reds last Thursday night in Whalley. Down 2-0 after the Reds batted in the top of the first inning, the Chiefs got on the scoreboard when Chorpita singled to score Ryan Pouwells. Mitchell Anderson drove in Hasner with a single, and Chorpita scored on

IT was a good weekend in the water for the Semiahmoo Masters Swim Club recently, as the group placed first in the “small team” division at provincial masters swim championships in Vancouver. The meet, held in late April, was highlighted by Danica Stockstad, who set a new provincial record in the 400m individual medley, clocking a gold-medal winning time of five minutes, 50.46 seconds. Stockstad also placed first in
the 50m backstroke, 50, 100, 200 and 400m freestyle swims and the 100m individual medley. Others to find the podium included Robyn Sawyer (silver in 50 and 100m back stroke and 50m butterfly, bronze in the 100m back stroke); Bonnie Hartney (second in 50m breaststroke and third in two other events); Heike Beer (first in 50 and 100m back stroke); Craig Slater (first in three back stroke distances, second in 50m butterfly and 200m individual medley and third in the 100m individual medley); and Anne-Lynn Stockstad (sec-
ond in 50m butterfly and third in 200m freestyle). Rounding out the medalwinners was Dale Freeman, who took top spot in two events (200 and 400m individual medley), won silver in the 100m back stroke and 100m butterfly and won bronze in the 400m freestyle and 100m individual medley. Three Semiahmoo club relay teams also made the podium. The women’s 4x50m freestyle team won gold, while the women’s 4x50m medley and the mixed medley teams won bronze.

Winning weekend lifts Jays to seventh North Delta wins three of four on Vancouver Island, loses in Abbotsford
by Rick Kupchuk A successful road trip
to central Vancouver Island left the North Delta Blue Jays with three wins in four starts last weekend. The B.C. Premier Baseball League team swept a double header from the Parksville Royals Saturday, then split two games in Nanaimo Sunday against the Pirates. North Delta also lost 3-2 on the road Tuesday night at Delair Park to the Abbotsford Cardinals. The Jays improved their won-lost record to 7-6, and climbed into a tie for seventh place in the 13-team elite league for players 18-andunder. Three North Delta batters had a multiplehit game against the Royals in Saturday’s first game in Parksville and the Jays went on to an 11-7 victory. Ryo Takenaka went three-for-four with two runs scored, while Riley Grewal and Bryan
O’Hara each had a single and a double to pace the 12-hit Blue Jays attack. Grewal, Takenaka and Brad Antchak drove in two runs each. North Delta scored six times in the top of the first inning, and were never in danger of losing their lead. Evan Rogers was the winning pitcher, allowing seven runs on three hits and five walks. He struck out 10 Parksville batters. The Blue Jays were shut out until the sixth inning, but scored two late runs for a 2-1 win in the second game against the Royals. North Delta pitcher Dylan MacAhonic held the Royals to just one run over seven innings, striking out eight batters while giving up an unearned run on three hits and a pair of walks. RBI-singles by Jordy Cunningham and Trent Fletcher in the sixth inning scored Brett Sakaki and Mitch Boychuk to lift the Jays into the lead.

North Delta Blue Jays pitcher Ryan Braun had eight strikeouts in a 4-1 victory over the Nanaimo Pirates sunday on Vancouver Island. North Delta’s only loss of the weekend came in the first game Sunday in Nanaimo, when Luke Manuel was on the short end of a
pitcher’s duel. Manuel issued just three hits and two walks while striking out nine Pirates batters. He allowed two runs, one unearned,

over six innings but took the loss in a 2-0 decision. Antchak had two of the three North Delta hits, including a double.
North Delta was outhit 6-4 in game two, but three of those hits came in the last two innings as the Jays scored four times in a 4-1 victory. Sakaki hit a two-out double in the sixth to lift the visitors to a 2-1 lead, scoring Grewal and Boychuk. In the seventh inning, Takenaka got on base on a Pirates error, allowing O’Hara to score from second base. Takenaka then scored on Boychuk’s single. Ryan Braun threw a complete-game six hitter for the win, also giving up three walks while striking out eight Pirates batters. Tuesday night in Abbotsford, the Blue Jays outhit the home side 6-4 and had three extra-base hits to Abbotsford’s two. But they also committed two errors which led to a pair of unearned runs. MacAhonic doubled to lead off the third inning, then scored on Grewal’s single to give North Delta a 1-0 lead.
The two errors by the North Delta infield put Abbotsford on top 2-1 after four, but the Blue Jays tied the game with two hits in the fifth inning. Antchak hit a lead-off triple, then scored on a single by Rogers. The Cardinals scored the winning run in the bottom of the seventh inning, taking advantage of a single, a stolen base, a wild pitch and a sacrifice fly. North Delta pitcher Takenaka took the loss despite a strong effort over seven innings. He gave up one earned run on four hits and a pair of walks while collecting nine strikeouts. The Blue Jays will be in New Westminster for two games with the Vancouver Cannons Saturday, then host the Nanaimo Pirates for a double header Sunday at Mackie Park. North Delta is tied for seventh place with the Cannons, 4.5 games back of the first-place Langley Blaze.

In 1970, a vacuum sewer system with high maintenance costs and restricted capacity was installed in Bridgeview. Recently, AECOM designed a solution that offered a mix of practicality, potential for phasing and economic viability. AECOM developed a replacement strategy that combined conventional sewer installation with GPS-based trenchless technology in a manner that had not been used for municipal sewer servicing in British Columbia. The new two-storey Bridgeview Pump Station (which could be mistaken for a neighbourhood home thanks to its design) allows all the electrical, controls and generator equipment to be located above the Fraser River’s 200-year flood level on the second floor. The new sewer service saves the city $1 million per year.

ary student Tony Wang won first place at the Law Week 2013 speech contest, held last month in the vintage courtrooms at the Vancouver Art Gallery. Wang won a $1,500 cash prize and The Barry Sullivan Law Cup. Thirty-four Grades 10 to 12 students from across the province debated the theme: Access to Justice – The Role of Public Opinion. This was the 30th annual Tony Wang public speaking competition sponsored by the Canadian Bar Association, BC Branch (CBABC). “(It’s rewarding) to see the calibre of students participating each year,” said CBABC president Kerry L. Simmons, who encouraged the students “to continue to use their voice to educate others about our justice system, challenge the status quo and contribute to solutions and improvements in their school community and beyond.”

Critical thinkers north surrey secondary grade 12 students Cameron Zindler (left) and Mike sui competed in BC’s Brightest Minds Competition at Playland at the Pne recently. The event brought together two-person teams of students from across the province in a critical-thinking science competition that used Playland as a real-life case study.
A place to Speak Up – about mental health
S
tudents and school counsellors recently gathered in Surrey to experience the power of youth speaking up about mental health. Speak Up, a peer-based Fraser Health initiative, focuses on helping improve youth’s experience with mental health issues related to themselves and others by raising awareness, building understanding and creating a vocabulary. “By building capacity in youth to understand and be able to talk about mental health issues, we believe their overall experience when it comes to mental health – whether it be related to themselves or someone else – will be changed for the better,” said Dr. Karen Tee, manager of Child, Youth & Young Adult Mental Health and Substance Use Services for Fraser Health. “We see early recognition of an issue, increased compassion and support of others, the opportunity to connect early to a caring network and feelings of strength, resilience and hope as part of the positive change related to Speak Up.” Funded through a $432,000 donation from Coast Capital Savings, Speak Up enables teens and young adults to share and learn from each other through in-school presentations, a Youth Peer Network and a digital community, http:// mindcheck.ca/speakup/ “Youth mental health is a social issue, and with that, you will see limited real, tangible change in the areas of prevention and treatment if we start talking more about it,” said Jay-Ann Fordy, Chief Human Resources Officer, Coast Capital Savings. “Coast Capital is committed to helping build richer futures for youth in our communities. One of the pillars of that commitment is building healthy minds. “Without healthy minds, a richer future is not possible. Speak Up serves as a hub for important conversations that need to happen. It is time to speak up in support of youth mental health resources. We’re doing that today.” This safe and collaborative web space supports teens and young adults from across the province in sharing their stories, and expressing their thoughts, feelings and ideas in a variety of different ways including art, photography, videos,
students, school counsellors and supporters of the Fraser Health-based initiative speak Up. stories and poetry. “Youth share their voices in many different ways,” said Aidan Scott, Speak Up’s Youth Peer Coordinator. “Speak Up encourages youth to learn and share how they feel when they’re comfortable. As a youth with lived experience, I can personally tell you that had something like Speak Up existed when I first started to feel something was happening for me, I believe my experience would have been different, in a good way. I would have felt less alone and able to talk about it and get support sooner. That’s huge.” Launched in late 2012, Speak Up is part of Gaining Ground, Fraser Health’s teen and young adult mental health promotion, prevention and early intervention program. Speak Up’s digital community lives on http://mindcheck. ca, a teen and young adult program (ages 13-25) that seeks to encourage the early detection and intervention of mental health and substance use issues, while increasing public awareness and reducing stigma.

Passed away peacefully at Cedar Hills in Langley. Predeceased by her loving husband Stan in January of this year. Helen will be greatly missed by all her family and friends. Survived by her daughter Deborah (Duncan) and her three sons Max (Marla), Jay (Linda) and Kelly (Sheryl), 6 grandchildren Jacqui, Kevin, Fiona, Jordan, Stevie, Iain and 2 great-grandchildren Tyson and Chloe. Helen will be remembered by all for her loyalty to friends, her industriousness, love of horses and playing cards. She worked as a welder during WWII, raised calves on the farm, clerked at the Auto and Fraser Valley Auctions and at Fraser Downs Racetrack until she was 90. Helen was a big believer in giving back and supported multiple charities through donations and volunteering. Her favourite charities were the Variety Club and Children’s Hospital. The family asks that in lieu of flowers, a donation be made to one of those charities. It was Helen’s request that no remembrance service be conducted and that her and Stan’s ashes be spread near their old farm in Langley.
